Summary
Humans engineered for soldier & enforcer roles. Created from clone geneseeds, and infertile. Their executive & critical functions have been limited, so they have trouble operating on their own.
Gameplay
Available Backgrounds
- The Fosterite Empire, a strict society built on a racial caste system
- ULISIS:
- Various Arcologies spread throughout the galaxy, usually as enforcer or military clones
- Various Outer Worlds (custom).
Lore
Origin
Soldier & Enforcer caste of Fosterite Empire. Nominally below Betas in hierarchy, but used to enforce Alpha supremacy.
Physiology
Since the main perceived threat in the Progenitor empire is a Beta uprising, their appearance is pretty close to a baseline human in order to keep them presentable to the public they're suppressing.
About 7 feet tall, ridiculously fit mesomorphs. Generally identical appearance, even if not clones. High likelihood of cyborg enhancements, depending on specialized roles.
Tend to begin with Alpha genes since those are already improved.
Psychology
Mental capacities are reduced far below the level of most homunculi, as a control measure. What isn't possible through genetic alteration is done through lobotomy and indoctrination.
They are entirely bereft of personal volition, on a higher level. Their executive functions practically only allow them to follow orders, and to distinguish whether it comes from a designated authority.
They are aware of most emotions, but only in an analytical sense that cannot override their duties.
Culture
Control is ensured through relentless indoctrination and full cultural impoverishment. Gamma sectors are truly Spartan and lack any semblance of character or culture beyond propaganda.
